The Pri Minister of Wa Country was furious.
Deeply angered by Xu Wendong’s actions in Wa Country, he believed that Xu’s behavior was a blatant disrespect for the dignity of the Wa State Governnt.
Not to ntion that he had just set fire to the Yasukuni Shrine before heading to the Tokyo National Museum to steal the antiques and treasures there.
If he wasn’t kept in Wa Country forever, how could the Wa people maintain their dignity?
The senior officials of the tropolitan Police Departnt directly contacted Pingliang Xiangzhi, saying, "Miss Kaori, Master Xu is now within our borders. We need the help of the Yamato Kendo Hall."
"I have already sent you his photo, hoping the Yamato Kendo Hall can help us keep an eye on this man’s whereabouts."
Pingliang Xiangzhi opened the photo sent to her.
Although the photo was blurry, making it hard to discern the person’s appearance,
Pingliang Xiangzhi’s pupils suddenly trembled because she recognized the man’s identity in the photo. Who else could it be but Yanagida Ryo?
She could hardly believe it, even in her dreams, that Yanagida Ryo was actually the legendary Master Xu who killed the Eight-Forked Serpent.
Her feelings were complicated.
But she still gave a clear reply: "We will have people keep an eye on this man’s whereabouts."
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Iga Kako beside her.
Iga Kako shrugged her shoulders. Although she suspected that Yanagida Ryo was no ordinary person, she hadn’t expected he was the legendary Master Xu.
Just as she was about to speak, her phone rang with a call from the senior officials of the tropolitan Police Departnt, whose simple request was for the ninjas to assist in finding Master Xu’s whereabouts.
"Rest assured, the Iga Clan will do their utmost to monitor this man’s whereabouts," Iga Kako agreed to assist in tracking Xu Wendong.
As it was her obligation as a Wa Country citizen.
Whether she would truly exert herself was sothing only she knew.
"Jiazi, I never expected Mr. Yanagida to be Master Xu," tears burst from Pingliang Xiangzhi’s eyes as she recalled her father’s tragic death.
Her father had died in a foreign land searching for this so-called Master Xu.
Iga Kako gently wiped away the tears from Pingliang Xiangzhi’s eyes, whispering, "Kaori, I know you are hurting inside, but we cannot deny one thing."
"Aside from deceiving us about being from Great Xia, in other aspects, he owes us nothing."
"Although he burned the Yasukuni Shrine and went to the Tokyo National Museum, did he ever harm us?"
"Even though your father was tragically killed searching for him, it was he who used his connections to have Mr. Yano’s remains brought back."
"Not to ntion, he saved both of our lives."
Hearing Iga Kako’s words, Pingliang Xiangzhi felt a bit comforted as she gazed out the window, murmuring, "He has revealed his identity, who knows if he’ll ever co back."
Iga Kako smiled, "Even if he doesn’t co back, we can go to Great Xia to find him! Taste the delicious food there and perhaps take down Master Xu!"
------
When Xu Wendong returned to Ohashi Yui’s residence, Ohashi Yui had already woken up. She wore a white camisole and was sitting on the bed browsing her phone.
Seeing Xu Wendong return, she quickly got up and nervously asked, "Mr. Yanagida, did you go to the Yasukuni Shrine and the Tokyo National Museum?"
She knew of Xu Wendong’s identity.
Xu Wendong didn’t hide it, smiling, "Since I’m here, shouldn’t I visit those two places? Don’t worry, I only took treasures that belong to our country. I didn’t steal treasures from your country!"
Ohashi Yui blushed, "But you did steal Yui’s heart."
Xu Wendong was taken aback, not expecting her to say sothing like that at this mont, which moved him deeply, "Don’t you bla ?"
Ohashi Yui gently shook her head, "Although we are from two different countries, although there are many conflicts between our two countries, I am not a patriot!" She smiled innocently and playfully.
A simple sentence that clearly stated her stance.
She was not patriotic.
Therefore, she didn’t care what Xu Wendong had done in this country.
Xu Wendong was very satisfied with her answer. He picked her up, placed her on the bed, and they shared a mont of tenderness. Afterward, Ohashi Yui lay in Xu Wendong’s arms with reluctance, "Are you leaving soon?"
Although they hadn’t been together for long, she deeply enjoyed being with Xu Wendong. He brought her a sense of security and comfort she couldn’t quite explain.
Being with him made her feel truly happy and physically and emotionally content.
Xu Wendong softly said, "Our two countries aren’t far apart. I can co to see you anyti. Likewise, you can co to visit ."
Ohashi Yui looked up, whispering, "Can I bring Jiazi and Miss Kaori to find you?"
Xu Wendong felt awkward, not expecting Ohashi Yui to ntion the other two, he cleared his throat, "Of course!"
Just as Ohashi Yui was about to speak, her phone rang, displaying Ohashi Yasuo’s number.
"Don’t you know it’s rude to call soone in the middle of the night?" Ohashi Yui’s tone was anything but friendly.
The timid side of her had died once she summoned her Servant Gods.
Ohashi Yasuo nervously said, "His Majesty the Emperor wants you to help find Master Xu’s whereabouts."
Ohashi Yui replied, "What right does he have to order ?"
Ohashi Yasuo imdiately fell silent.
After all, it was the lofty Emperor!
Even if you had been acknowledged by the Eight-Forked Serpent, speaking like this was absolutely disregarding the Imperial Family.
"Tell the Emperor to give up tracking Master Xu. Even if they found him, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg, they can’t defeat him!" Ohashi Yui said, "Instead, they should focus on rectifying the governnt’s upper echelons, addressing the past mistakes openly, and not think of escaping them."
"Moreover, they need to seriously consider how to deal with the nuclear wastewater. Disposing of it into the sea will make them eternal sinners of the nation."
"Oh, that’s the Eight-Forked Serpent’s opinion." She hung up imdiately after saying that.
Then, she clung to Xu Wendong for another round. She wanted to cherish every mont they had together, hoping to leave a deep impression on him so he wouldn’t forget her.
They shared a passionate night. At dawn, Xu Wendong quietly dressed, gently kissing Ohashi Yui on the forehead.
He then left Ohashi Yui’s ho without saying goodbye. He didn’t like such sentintal occasions.
Fifty minutes later,
Xu Wendong arrived at Tokyo International Airport, where Qing Niao was waiting for him. She wore a light blue embroidered cheongsam short skirt with an air of elegance and charm.
Xu Wendong glanced at the bustling Tokyo behind him, and resolutely entered the airport.
Tokyo, though bustling,
could hardly compare to the ancient civilization that spanned over five thousand years.
